  • Abstract
    This pictorial essay depicts MR features of benign and malignant parotid tumors. Increased T2 signal intensity is suggestive of pleomorphic adenoma. Tumors with relatively low signal intensity on T2-weighted images are more likely to be malignant even when they are well-demarcated. Fat suppression technique improves the ability to define the boundaries of neoplatic or inflammatory lesions.
